This is a very simple form that I have found on the web (as I am a jQuery beginner).
<!-- this is my jquery -->
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("form#submit_wall").submit(function() {
var message_wall = $('#message_wall').attr('value');
var id = $('#id').attr('value');
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "index.php?leht=pildid",
data:"message_wall="+ message_wall + "&id="+ id,
cache: false,
success: function(){
$("ul#wall").prepend(""+message_wall+"", ""+id+"");
$("ul#wall li:first").fadeIn();
alert("Thank you for your comment!");
}
});
return false;
});
});
</script>
<!-- this is my HTML+PHP -->
some PHP ...
while($row_pilt = mysql_fetch_assoc($select_pilt)){
print
<form id="submit_wall">
<label for="message_wall">Share your message on the Wall</label>
<input type="text" id="message_wall" />
<input type="hidden" id="id" value="'.(int)$row_pilt['id'].'">
<button type="submit">Post to wall</button>
</form>
and down below is my PHP script that writes to mySQL.
It is a pretty straight forward script. However, it is getting little complicated when I submit it. Since I have more than one form on my page (per WHILE PHP LOOP), thus when I submit - only the FIRST form gets submitted. Furthermore, any other subsequent forms that I submit - data is being copied from the first form. Is there any jQuery functions that clear the data? - or is there a better solution.
Thanks, Nick
